If you go down to The Grove shopping centre today, you're sure to have a big surprise, this life-size crashed UFO to help promote the new mini-series for The X-Files.

An unexpected visitor at The Grove in L.A.

Yes, after nine seasons of the pop culture hit sci-fi series, plus two big screen spin-offs, 'Mulder and Scully' are back to try and find out if 'the truth is still out there'.

This downed 3D spacecraft, complete with venting gases and shadowy government officials in hazmat gear investigating the crash, is a fantastic way to get people excited about the show which originally ran from 1993 to 2002.

Apparently it's all part of an awareness raising PR stunt taking place at the busy shopping centre this weekend, include advance screenings of some of the new six episodes.

It's funny, but I was watching The X-Files first movie back in July 2008 at The Grove when I experienced my first ever 5.4 magnitude earthquake in California, and at the time thought it was someone rocking my seat behind me (talk about your unusual phenomena).

Of course, the stars of The X-Files haven't exactly been twiddling their thumbs these past ten years or so since the show ended, so if you're a fan of David Duchovny, be sure to check him out in these Californication and Aquarius TV series billboards.
